Hello there!

Welcome to a tiny glimpse of who I am.

So here goes…

I’m Karlien. I grew up on a farm in South Africa where nature and adventure is part of your DNA. I got my first film camera in college when I left home to study photography and it was love at first sight. After my studies I set off to travel the world which lasted for half a decade where I was introduced to different cultures and people that helped me broadened my mind and vision, helping me grow as an artist and as a human being.

Mexico kind of fell into my lap and after 10 years of living here I’ve been incredibly lucky to have captured love stories from all walks of life. My number one goal is to document your day in an authentic, artistic and beautiful way that when you look back on it you will remember exactly how it felt. I’m always striving to meet kind and loving people that I can create new memories with.

I find most of my inspiration through nature, traveling and hiking. I LOVE climbing mountains, volcanoes, chasing the light and admiring the view. If I am not behind my camera I am happiest being at home with the cats, working in the garden or sitting around a fire, under the stars and enjoying a glass of red wine.

If that sounds like a person you will want to be friends with then send me an email HERE.

Thank you so much for stopping by.
